Shepparton Race 5 - Shepparton To The Meadows (1-4 W) Ht1
HIGHLY POTENT (1) was out of placings last time (29.60) at Sandown in a S/E Group 1, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Already a winner from this draw. Expected to be in the finish. STEAL THE STAGE (5) hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 8 lengths (29.71) over 525m at The Meadows. The form out of last race has been strong. One of the prime contenders. FLUFFY MASON (4) ran a good time (25.01) when placing three back at this track but has missed the frame since, last time out finishing seventh (26.13) at this track. Can find the frame this time. KODA (2) should be thereabouts.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 525m at The Meadows. This looks too tough.
